On August 26, 2025, SpaceX achieved a landmark milestone with its Starship S37, performing a controlled descent and landing in the Indian Ocean after a 66-minute suborbital flight. Launching from Starbase, Texas, the 403-foot-tall spacecraft executed a precise ocean landing, captured in live footage shared by Elon Musk. This mission, the tenth Starship test flight,…
Hidden deep inside the Earth, far beyond the reach of human exploration, scientists have revealed the existence of colossal mountain-like structures that make Mount Everest look tiny in comparison. A recent study published in Nature unveiled these formations, buried nearly 1,200 miles beneath our feet, known as Large Low Shear Velocity Provinces (LLSVPs). Each is…
On August 28, 2025, SpaceX achieved a historic milestone with Falcon 9 booster B1067 completing its 30th successful flight and landing. Launching from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, the rocket ascended against a dramatic sunset, its reflection shimmering on nearby waters. This mission, Starlink 10-11, deployed 28 satellites into low Earth orbit, expanding SpaceX’s global broadband…
Elon Musk, the world’s richest entrepreneur and owner of SpaceX, has unveiled a vision for ultra-fast global travel that could dramatically reduce intercontinental flight times. Speaking during a discussion on SpaceX’s Starship, Musk claimed that trips from Los Angeles to Sydney or Tokyo could take less than 30 minutes, while journeys across the Atlantic could…
SpaceX has offered a rare glimpse inside its Starlink satellite factory in Redmond, Washington, showcasing a facility capable of producing 70 satellites per week. The company released a video highlighting the assembly, packaging, and component production processes, demonstrating how it rapidly scales Starlink manufacturing. Alongside the production milestone, SpaceX revealed details about its mini laser…
SpaceX’s Starship achieved a key milestone in its tenth test flight by deploying its first batch of mock Starlink satellites into orbit. The demonstration, reported by Reuters, marks a turning point after several failed test attempts and showcases the rocket’s unique “Pez”-like dispenser system designed for mass satellite deployment. While the satellites were dummies, the…
SpaceX’s highly anticipated 10th Starship test flight was called off just minutes before liftoff in Texas, leaving space enthusiasts and industry watchers in suspense. The massive rocket, standing nearly 400 feet tall when stacked, had been scheduled to launch from the company’s Starbase site on Sunday evening, aiming to test critical milestones after a string…
In a recent breakthrough, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) made an exciting discovery, a new moon orbiting Uranus. Named S/2025 U1, the tiny moon is just about 10 kilometres (6 miles) in diameter, yet its detection marks a major breakthrough. Even NASA’s Voyager 2, which flew past Uranus nearly four decades ago, missed it….
The European Space Agency (ESA) has shared breathtaking images of volcanoes as seen from space, highlighting Earth’s fiery landscapes from Italy’s Mount Vesuvius to Indonesia’s Krakatoa. These photographs, taken by astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS), serve as a powerful reminder of how active and dynamic our planet remains. The images were released on…
BENGALURU: Indian researchers have developed a new kind of filter made from waste material that can help clean harmful pollutants from industrial wastewater.The study, published in the journal Water Environment Research, was led by Karan Gupta and Priyanka Katiyar from the Chemical Engineering Department of Shiv Nadar University, Delhi-NCR. The team has created a “biochar-infused…
